“Thank you for your enthusiasm”, writes Eric Zemmour in an e-mail to his support, inviting them to watch the pictures of his trip to Marseille on social networks. This two-day visit has yet been worse than expected, without contact with the population, and concluded with a little glorious scene that took place in a handful of seconds.

Around 12:30, Saturday, November 27, the pressing candidate in the presidential election comes out of a restaurant around the intercontinental hotel, on the street Méry, behind the town hall of Marseille.

Accompanied by his companion and executive Sarah Knafo, he climbs in the car that must lead them to Saint-Charles station to return to Paris. A passerby asks to approach. The former chronicler of Figaro drops the glass, and the lady sends him a finger of honor. Suddenly, Eric Zemmour returns her the same, adding: “And deep,” saw the photographer of the France-Presse agency. Sitting at his side on the bench, Sarah Knafo laughs with the bursts, like the same photographer captures, then the car goes to the station.

Contact, the entourage does not confirm the exchange. Olivier Ubeda, responsible for public travel of Eric Zemmour, says that “it’s not his style”.

This unfortunate image intervenes at the end of a heavily shift and a series of bevues, in recent weeks, committed by the far-right pretender to the presidential race. Among them, the image of him holding a sniper rifle not loaded and pointing the journalists, at the Milipol show on October 20, or that of November 13 in Bataclan, the day of commemoration of the 2015 attacks, marked the spirits.

fiasco

In Marseille, last stage of a Tour de France realized on the pretext of dedicating his last book, the expedition turned to Fiasco. Eric Zemmour first had to get off from the train before Marseille, at Aix-en-Provence, because of the presence of “Antifas” at St. Charles station. His stroll then lasted a handful of minutes, without knowing with inhabitants.

The far-right polemicist should formalize his candidacy for the presidential election in the coming days. He must also hold a first electoral meeting at the Zenith of Paris on December 5th.
